Best overall VPS/Dedi in NA
Looking for a dedi or vps that's overall the best. Looking to support at least ~100 players.
Self hosting is too big of an investment for me and I'd probably be losing a lot in the long term.

What is your budget?
not too worried about budget
i'd say under $80 a month
What server software etc?
i'll be running velocity and spigot 1.8
Location?
wait
Nvm
probably gonna use ovh atp
i've heard it's dogshit though
Some have their problems with OVH, but I wouldn't say it's bad.
which plan should i go with? i'm looking at the vps section, but none of them seem right to me. i'll probably need more than 24 gigs of ram and a decent cpu, but the ones they have don't look to be the greatest
I wouldn't bother with a VPS if you are planning on that many players.
Go for a dedi
At your price point you would probably want something in the SYS or Rise range.

you can try waffle.host
new york location
ryzen 9 7950x3d
ddr5 ram
nvme gen 4 storage
neoprotect anti ddos, perfect for minecraft
Isn’t that slightly out of their budget lmao
(Waffle dedis)
Why a dedi?
its not that many players for a 1.8 server if you think about it
OH they said VPS / dedi
mbmb
happens to the best of us :)
hell, shared hosting would be fine for this
they use the most weird ass hosts for nodes tbh
ravnix,delux
you’re talking to someone who is part of waffle lmao
well
I hope so
unless they really love them
whats wrong with them? (were offering cheaper than them at the same quality)
So much to put it in their bio
Shitnix for one is…
rav nix??? shittier than shit host thats deadpooling
not great
yeah
i know they have donwtimes, personally we had 0 issues
only issue is slow support
all but 2 of their staff quit
One of the remaining staff is apparently 15
im aware, dont want to put customers through an ip change again
:Shruge:
better than when the host dies and looses colocation
just search up the host in this discord
and your data is facked and having to explain that to the clients
the amount of claims im filing if that happens
they dont really care
@Tyler 's dedi has been down for a week+ with no support etc
no issues with mine tho, so i guess its fine for now
correct
We’ve had multiple instances of downtime, and they locked down the discord and their uptime page was down
They even locked the general chat and the status chat (again) 😂
https://status.waffle.host :joeshrug:
Service Status
Monitor your service uptime and incidents
‘WAS’
wait
kms
I’m in a rush
doing great discord
go do your thing instead of talking with strangers on discord
also uh deluxhost isnt just neoprotect its also activeservers which apparently has pretty bad networking (from whati heard)
its interwerk with neoprotect on top
public node stats when :)
Idk how it’s only specifically my dedi that ain’t working, but we’ve had no support in it trying to be back up
you better be getting some hefty SLA compensation lmao
i aparently removed the text for it, my mistake but https://uptime.waffle.host
Waffle.Host Uptime - Powered by HetrixTools
Waffle.Host Uptime - Uptime Status
I doubt we’ll get any SLA
neat
we’re scrambling to find alternatives, we’ve only just started practicing 3:2:1 after the downtime
the status page is open source btw, open source for life
My new dedi js came in today lmao
oooh sweet
What specs
9950x 192gb 2TB
give
h
forget about it
It was 4TB with shit nix lmao
we’re only using ~1tb out of 4tb on ours
580gb of which is MySQL 😭
I spent all of today setting it up
had to reinstall the OS 2 times it was a nightmare but it’s working now
anyways back to the actual question
VPS and dedi might be a little overpowered, you could do fine with a good shared hosting (dedicated cores / threads if you want)
Go with pufferfish ✅
VPS, you run the risk of nosy neighbours
if you’re rich sure
for 100+ players a vps is the option
ehhh
its not even that expensive comparatively
It’s not that much
true
for the support, ddos prot and hardware it’s fine pricing
debatable
you can do fine with shared hosting with a decent host
if the provider doesnt oversell the cpu youre fine
ddos prot is puffers main thing
oh absolutely
for VPS or shared hosting
yeah, i have a friend that switched from rav nix to pufferfish colo
fair enough
Good choice
expensive choice, he has cheap prices for his host
might be expensive but it’s colo with one of the best / most reputable mc hosts on the market lol
yeah, its the best host for minecraft honestly
yup
and kevin is a great guy who offers support even if its not about pufferfish
oh we love @Kevin
woooo!
not with us 🙂 though our ashburn location is sold out of vps because we price vps way too cheap lol the price on that is gonna have to go up sadly
god damn it
keep it at the same price please uwu
haha
I thought we were expensive 😂
Better price now than when you are increasing them :/
it's one of the cheapest vps's on the market
we actually only intended the current price to be the "beta" price
but then we kinda never increased it after 2 years
keep it that way :)
$2.75/GB 9950x VPS with dedicatd CPU isn't a sustainable price unfortunately
fair
Y’all upgraded to 9950x from the 5950Xs?
for VPS yes
VPS and premium in the US is now all 9950x
(at least new deployments, we put out an announcement for old deployments to upgrade if/when they want to)
update the site then owo
unless my browser hasn’t updated
So a > 18 year old and a 15 year old are running it 💀
Apparently, yes
Lmfao
